Pikes Peak Velo Racing is an active,
well established (We just celebrated our 38th year), USCF / NORBA and ACA bicycle racing
team based in Colorado Springs. Our premier race has been the Ed Burke
Memorial Criterium. Last year the race was held on Sunday July 2.

for more information ! In 2006, Pikes Peak Velo Racing in
conjunction with the Ed Burke Memorial Criterium, helped raise $4650.00
for the Ed Burke Memorial scholarship fund.
Due to construction at the race site, the criterium for this year
has been cancelled however, we will be sponsoring two
Cyclo-Cross races
later in the fall !
Our team members are active in many aspects of cycling - from road,
mountain, track, and cyclocross - to promoting and organizing both
races and fun rides. Several members are certified coaches, and several
other members work at or own a bike shop. Pikes Peak Velo Racing
members are working professionals who actively promote cycling.
Pikes Peak Velo Racing provides training and race day camaraderie, and
we also coordinate some car-pooling and accommodations for races. We
organize and lead Saturday and Sunday training rides throughout the
year in the Colorado Springs area. During the summer months we have
practice race nights as well as practice time trail series and bike
skill classes, and our certified coaches provide tips in our monthly
newsletter and on our website.
Our Sponsors
Racing teams succeed or fail because of their members and their
sponsors. Our generous sponsors provide everything from a place to hold
our monthly meetings to bike discounts, products, advice, and financial
support. For additional information on our generous Sponsors, please
